Management in 2011

The "before development starts" planning conditions were discharged in June 2011 so this was the first six months of active landscape management.

In this year we have:

Prepared the eastern end of the Club's land for sowing as a wild flower meadow. Key to this has been spreading subsoil over the existing topsoil to reduce the fertility of the land so that rank ruderal vegetation does not dominate.

Started to sow wild flower meadow seed mixture.

Repaired fences in preparation for enhancement planting of the hedges that surround the land.
